Lzzy Hale has never exactly been one to play by the rules, or to conform to expectations. She is a child of the 90's, but was baptized into the church of 70's and 80's rock and roll and dove in head first, worshipping at the altar of the "foremothers of rock" like Ann Wilson, Joan Jett & Pat Benatar. She emerged and formed Halestorm, combining vocals that can seduce you one moment only to punch you in the face the next with her bandmates thunderous, buzzsaw cocktail of 90's grunge and nu metal. Throw in giant hooks and enough pop polish to make her foremothers proud and you have Halestorm.

Justin sits down with Lzzy to talk about Halestorm's new album "Vicious", and what it's like being an influencer and foremother in her own right. Plus her takes on advocating for mental health and being that cartoon character that someone out there needs to see and why representation matters more than ever.

Enjoy!
